DNA and RNA-sequence based GWAS highlights membrane-transport genes as key modulators of milk lactose content.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The approaches for shotgun-based sequencing of vertebrate genomes are now well-established, and have resulted in the generation of numerous draft whole-genome sequence assemblies. In contrast, the process of refining those assemblies to improve contiguity and increase accuracy (known as 'sequence finishing')...
